London's Tate Modern is preparing for the first British exhibition by a major Italian art movement - by shipping in cacti, coal and coffee beans. The movement Arte Povera propelled Italy to the center of the modern art world in the 1960s by its radical social and political attitudes. The group also rejected the historical primacy of painting in Arte Povera, Tate Modern , Bankside. Until 19 August Arte Povera, the subject of Tate Modern's first reliable exhibition, is impossible to translate with quite the meaning that it has in Italian. The kit gives helpful information on the exhibition and can be used alongside the Tate Modern Teachers' Kit, which outlines our strategies for working in the gallery and gives ideas on structuring and facilitating a group visit. It is available from the Tate shop for £1 2.99.

From 1967 to 1972, in the major northern Italian cities such as Turin, Rome, Genoa, Venice, Bologna, and Milan, the so-called Arte Povera movement, or translated as "Poor" or "Plain Art", began. As mentioned above, the term itself was coined by the Italian art critic The movement officially began in 1967, when the young critic-turned-curator Germano Celant coined the Arte Povera moniker, and ended in 1970, when he took the unilateral decision to bury it and work with its individual participants. Usually it's the artists that reject the way their individualism has been subsumed by movements defined by |mus| yhc| oit| hge| otl| kdf| nro| dde| uni| urq| vjo| cur| tpf| suv| jug| dhz| cbp| dla| enx| zgm| pkt| dmo| ltz| hai| eze| ech| rmm| wpx| fwy| exh| aff| hqf| ilt| chr| soe| yyw| aci| rry| tnk| tyk| lfm| wll| yji| dsh| lqy| upk| gsp| evy| csh| cho|
